BACKGROUND
BCA launched the BCA
Green Mark Scheme in January 2005 to promote
environmental awareness in the construction and real estate
sectors. It is used as the yardstick to rate the environmental
friendliness of a building ('green building'). It encourages
the adoption of an integrated design approach incorporating passive design and various Green Building Technologies (GBTs) to
achieve a sustainable built environment.
A sum of $20 million was set aside on 'Green
Mark Incentive Scheme (GMIS)' on 15 December 2006 for a period
of 3 years or when the fund is fully committed (whichever is
earlier). This is to help accelerate the adoption of
environmentally-friendly green building technologies and
building design practices. The enhanced scheme offers cash
incentives to developers, building owners, project architects
and M&E engineers who make efforts to achieve at least a
BCA Green Mark Gold rating or higher in the design and
construction of new buildings. For major retrofitting of existing buildings there is a new incentive under the new GMIS (EB) Scheme.
